Code:
x=abc$123 
t=xyz$

x gets the assignment value of the string abc and the dereference of the variable $123, which if it is not set it would be undefined.

t gets the assignment value of the string xyz$. The `$' is not being interpreted by the shell as the dereference of a variable, since it exist as the last character. It is the equivalent of 'xyz$' or xyz\$
